CyberKnife has transformed how we treat cancer in the brain at Auckland Radiation Oncology. It can precisely target multiple, tiny tumours, sometimes in just a single treatment session, while protecting healthy brain tissue.

There’s no surgery and it continuously adjusts for even the smallest patient movements to maintain pinpoint accuracy.

It's a major step forward – enabling us to treat more tumours, with more precision than conventional radiotherapy.

As the only provider of CyberKnife robotic radiation therapy in the country, we are proud to offer this non-invasive treatment to patients across New Zealand. Learn more about CyberKnife here: https://aucklandradiationoncology.co.nz/treatment-techniques/cyberknife/

HPV affects people of all genders, and prevention through vaccination and screening can make a real difference. Raising awareness, encouraging informed conversations, and supporting evidence‑based prevention are key to reducing HPV‑related cancers.

More than 2 in 3 Australians will be diagnosed with some form of skin cancer in their lifetime.

This December, let’s raise awareness and take action to protect ourselves and our loved ones. Skin cancer is almost entirely preventable, so that’s why it’s important to get to know your skin and check it regularly.

If you notice any changes, book an appointment with your GP straight away. Early detection saves lives.

Close to 2000 people are diagnosed with brain cancer in Australia each year.

Treatment for brain cancer depends on the type and location of the tumour, the stage of the disease, the severity of symptoms and the person’s general health.

Radiation therapy can be used to treat some brain cancers alongside other treatment options.
